I've still got tons to transcribe and put up for visitors to use.  I'm grateful that several wonderful people have recently volunteered to transcribe material for this site.  I've got records printed out, but I don't have time to type it all!

Soon, you'll see the results of their efforts.  Check this page from time to time for updates.

Do you have anything transcribed that you can share?  Got time to transcribe or proofread?  E-mail me for submission guidelines.

I look forward to your comments (and even your critiques!).  This site is a labor of love for me, and each person's research is important.

Back to typing!
